      I love the Fat Boy. This fight could end early or it could be close its up to Arreolla. He has the power to end this early.

          Mismatch. This was the worst possibly choice of opponents for Adamek. He might control the early rounds with his skill, but eventually Arreola will catch him and destroy him brutally. Its not like Arreola is a slow paced fighter. He has pretty good handspeed despite his size, and he'll catch up to Adamek with his constant pressure and granite chin.
          Accurate analysis. Arreola is too big and too strong.

          Adamek was fighting at 175 when he was Arreola's age, and was a middleweight during most of his time in the amateurs. Adamek should have remained at 200, his ideal weight division at his current age, and fought some of the European cruiserweights like Huck.

          Arreola will break him down, and win by KO in the 7th or 8th round.

            i'm like you and can see arguments made by people on either side.

            On the one hand Arreola hung in there tough with Vitali, no easy feat. On the other side he brawled and took some hard shots himself vs 5"10 chubby Minto, not looking great in the process imo.

            I could see any scenrio going down, nothing would suprise me. My predictions though will be that Adamek will take Chris's shots okay but he does go down at some point but battles back. Another thing i think that most don't is that Adamek will be able to hurt Chris, sneaky right cross counter drops Arreola.

              Part of me is saying Adamek was rushed into this fight vs. the much boigger real heavyweight with real power.


              Then part of me think if Chris is sloppy and fat he could possibly have problems with Adameks speed and the fight could be a battle.
              Im with ya on that, I think the speed is gonna be an issue myself as well as conditioning. It's clear that if arreola lands huge punch/es that he could win. But it's just seems less likely to me than when the fight was announced now and think that the speed could make chris look like Pavlik did this weekend. Who knows though, I was reassured when my buddy the Pavlik guy picks the same result he did for Pavlik it's like he made the choice for me lol, when he thinks the power and I question it I almost always see a clinic put on.

                If Arreola is coming in shape like his camp claims that he will be around like 245-239 then Adamek is going home in a body-bag.

                  Adamek will be victorious, unless Arreola competely traps him on the ropes and Adamek can't move and gts broken down. Other htan that, Adamek has a hell of a chin and good skills.

                    I think he is p4p one of the best fighters in the world. His chin is GRANITE, but the fact that Arreolla is so much bigger might pose some problems
                    Didn't Dawson drop him? Dawson isn't a very big puncher, although I guess you can argue that he could be deadly with punches you don't see coming.
